A flurry, a whirlwind, a rainstorm, a plate of steamed vegetables, a fledgling bird, a French translation, feelings aflame, feelings assuaged, forcefulness, the theology of primitive sign language, a twitter, a poem unread by a person unmet, pondering, reporting bugs, old movie clips, a bookmooch.com request, Texas tater tots, translating Spanish and Dutch via computer, a rapport, a daydream, a puzzling stress, a stressful puzzle,a plan, a conundrum, and a package of chewing gum.
